GeoCheck snapshot

Here is a snapshot of where cachers have sought the hidden location. Can you get to GZ exactly?

Cache description

The cache container was previously a camouflaged pill bottle, but has now been changed to another type. Please bring your own pen. You must sign the log sheet to claim a find.

No online spoilers please.


Update 9 May 2010: The hiding place at the old GZ is due to disappear soon. We have therefore moved the cache to a new location. The puzzle remains unchanged, with the puzzle solution (the old GZ) now renamed as WP2. Use the old GZ coordinates in GeoCheck to get the new GZ, which is a short distance away. You should also use the old GZ coordinates to help solve our Child’s Play 3 puzzle.
